CAT shows you people nearby who share your interests — at a café, the gym, on campus or at an event — so you can turn "I should say hi" into a real conversation. • Real-time radius-based discovery • Match by shared interests • Messages arrive as requests and open only when accepted • Voice messages, on-device filtering, block & report • 9 languages, free on iPhone. Less scrolling, more talking.

Hey Product Hunt 👋 We built CAT because we kept noticing the same thing: we're surrounded by interesting people every day — at the gym, in a café, on campus — and almost never talk to them. Social apps made it easy to connect with people across the world, but strangely hard to connect with the person sitting next to you. CAT flips that. Open the app, see who's nearby and what they're into, and send a request. Nothing opens until the other person accepts, so it stays respectful and pressure-free. A few things we're proud of: 🌍 9 languages from day one (including Hebrew & Arabic RTL) 🛡️ On-device content filtering + block/report 🎙️ Voice messages that expire after 24 hours We're a small independent team, and Android is on the way. We'd love your honest feedback: → Would you use this to meet people at events or on campus? → What would make you feel comfortable saying hi to someone nearby? Thanks for checking us out 🙏

What makes it easier to say hi to someone nearby?

We're launching CAT - Come And Talk tomorrow, and while building it we kept coming back to one question:

Why is it so hard to start a conversation with someone sitting right next to you at a caf , the gym, or a conference?

For us the answer was: knowing the other person is open to it, and having a shared interest to break the ice. That's why CAT shows people nearby by interests and lets them accept a message request before any chat opens.

Curious what you think what would make you comfortable saying hi to a stranger nearby?
